Camp Fiorante Matthews Mogerman is one of group of law firms across the country working together (the “Consortium”) on a proposed Canada-wide class action lawsuit against Volkswagen A.G. and a number of its Canadian and international subsidiaries relating to the manipulation of emissions data in a number of Volkswagen Group’s four and six cylinder turbo diesel engines sold under the Volkswagen and Audi brand names.

The Consortium is currently working to negotiate a national settlement through a proposed class action filed in Ontario. For a copy of a recent notice sent out in this regard click HERE.

The proposed class action is brought on behalf of any person in Canada who purchased any of the following vehicles equipped with a four or six cylinder turbo diesel engine as well as anyone who leased any of the following vehicles:

If you purchased or leased one of the affected vehicles, you may be a class member if the action is certified as a class action. If you would like to receive direct updates or notifications in this proceeding, please let us know by contacting our paralegal, Aisling Slevin at aslevin@cfmlawyers.ca or 604.331.9536. In the meantime, we suggest that all potential class members retain any documents they have regarding the purchase or sale of their vehicles, or any repairs effected to bring the vehicles within emission compliance standards. Those documents may be necessary at a later stage of the proceedings.
